B) I also
like the 'self-policing' idea of making posts to the list
from
non-subscribers get a subject tag of [OL] or
something like that.
Another good idea.
Can't the system compare the From or ReplyTo field against the
subscriber list, and take action from there?
People like me might need some assistance here. You see, my
_actual_
e-mail address is
DAW(a)yalespress3.unipress.yale.edu. Yale ITS just
provides
an alias for me which is
David.Woyciesjes(a)Yale.edu. Both work fine, and
I
think both are in the headers of my messages.
Confuses some other
automated
mail systems...
Good point. There are almost certainly people on the list who've
subscribed from a different address than the one they have the mail sent
to. Not insurmountable, but it does need consideraton.

Of course, it depends on how people get subscribed/added to the
list. I would think addresses can be changed by hand on the server, right?
Maybe this would be fixed on a case by case basis. Either way, messages
would still go through until Jay, or someone designated by him, updates the
address list...
